My (demonstrably flawed) recollection was that you hadn't made a fork --
I should have checked first).

I notices two patches - one for 7.2, which was applied, another for 7.3
which was (I believe) after the release. I did not check CVS (because I
was unaware of the stable branch). I can look tonight.
I have some changes to the spec file for this RPM which should go into
the 1.1 release. I will try very hard to get them in both branches of
CVS tonight, and drop you a note when I do.
